NYC Health + Hospitals’ (NYC H+H) Street Health Outreach and Wellness (SHOW) program utilizes mobile units to provide health screenings, vaccinations, wound care, basic material necessities such as socks and bottled water, behavioral health and social service referral supports, and harm reduction services to New Yorkers who are unsheltered. A further goal of the program is to connect patients to NYC H+H facility-based clinics, where they can receive ongoing medical care, including primary and preventive care and treatment for physical, behavioral or mental health needs. NYC H+H is seeking a vendor to provide, maintain, and operate the mobile units. NYC H+H will provide its own clinical and administrative staff and IT capabilities so is not seeking those services as part of this RFP. The SHOW program includes the services listed below: A. Clinical Services a. COVID-19 testing (both PCR and rapid) b. COVID-19 vaccination c. Additional vaccinations (e.g., TDAP, Hepatitis A, flu) d. Wound care (including ultrasound, wound dressing, and antibiotics) e. Basic evaluation of symptoms or health concerns B. Behavioral Health Support and Harm Reduction a. Engagement and education around mental health questions or concerns b. Screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment for substance use disorders c. Harm reduction services, such as naloxone administration training & kit distribution d. Linkage to additional support as needed C. Snack and Hygiene Product Distribution a. Non-perishable snacks and water b. Hygiene kits containing: toothbrush, toothpaste, soap, surgical mask, baby wipes, tissue, menstrual products c. Socks, resumable plastic bags, and potentially additional TBD Each of the SHOW mobile clinics will be outfitted to provide e-consultations with NYC H+H clinicians located at affiliated clinics. Each unit will also have a “roving team,” including a clinician and a social worker, who will canvas the area surrounding the mobile unit in order to encourage individuals to visit the mobile clinic and/or provide services on-site to individuals who cannot come to the mobile unit. NYC H+H is also exploring the feasibility of additional services including a syringe exchange program, distribution of basic medications (including prescription and over-the-counter medications), and additional behavioral health supports.
